    The document summarizes two ball tracking technologies used in cricket - Hawk-Eye and Hot Spot. Hawk-Eye uses multiple high-speed cameras to track the ball's trajectory and statistically model its most likely path. Hot Spot uses infrared cameras to detect any contact between the ball and bat or pads by identifying bright spots on the infrared image where friction has elevated the temperature. Both systems are used with UDRS (Umpire Decision Review System) to help umpires make more accurate decisions on lbw appeals and thin edges.

    ABSTRACT

    Ball tracking system in cricket is used in UDRS to check lbw decision and thin inside edges. There are two types of technology used currently Hawk-Eye is a complex computer system used in cricket, tennis and other sports to visually track the trajectory of the ball and display a record of its most statistically likely path as a moving image. All HawkEye systems are based on the principles of triangulation using the visual images and timing data provided by at least four high-speed video cameras located at different locations and angles around the area of play. The system rapidly processes the video feeds by a high-speed video camera and ball tracker. A data store contains a predefined model of the playing area and includes data on the rules of the game. Hot Spot is an infra-red imaging system used in cricket to determine whether the ball has struck the batsman, bat or pad. Hot Spot requires two infrared cameras on opposite sides of the ground above the field of play that are continuously recording an image. Any suspected snick or bat/pad event can be verified by examining the infrared image, which usually shows a bright spot where contact friction from the ball has elevated the local temperature. Where referrals to an off-field third umpire are permitted, the technology is used to enhance the on-field umpire's decision-making accuracy. Where referrals are not permitted, the technology is used primarily as an analysis aid for televised coverage.
